This engaging book presents useful frameworks, key ideas, and practical techniques – all grounded in scientific research – to help you lead better on a day-to-day basis.

Whether you are moving into your first leadership role or are already a leader and looking to expand your purview and skillset, this is an essential resource for understanding leadership. Recognizing that a one-size-fits-all leadership approach isn’t always possible, Everyday Leadership encourages you to develop your own leader mindset. It gives a foundational overview of what leadership is, what makes leaders effective, and how to think systematically about organizations and teams. Translating science into accessible and practical language, it also offers general guidance for those who are interested in expanding their skills and knowledge. These teachings are supported by easy-to-follow reflective questions and exercises, allowing you to put these ideas into practice and develop a leadership practice that works best for you. At a time when people need to be empowered to lead, it will encourage you to truly think about what it means to lead other people in work and in life.

Providing a toolkit that covers basic theories, concepts, and practices in leadership research, this book is a go-to resource for all leaders wherever you are in your leadership journey.
